MyRER 2035 Scenarios – Renewable Energy Malaysia

The MyRER 2035 considers two distinct scenarios for RE development in the nation toward the 2025 Government target and through to 2035:

Business as Usual (BAU)

Business as Usual (BAU) scenario considers the implementation of existing policies and programmes without further extension and/or introduction of new programmes.

New Capacity Target (NCT)

New Capacity Target scenario aims for much higher RE capacity target to align with further decarbonization of electricity sector in Malaysia toward 2035 milestone. This scenario is aligned with the capacity development plan of Planning and Implementation Committee for Electricity Supply and Tariff (JPPPET 2020) for Malaysia. It represents the official commitment by the Government in achieving the 31% and 40% RE target by 2025 and 2035 respectively.

BAU 2025

11,887 MW 29% RE share		Shortfall to 31% target
Solar 3,616 MW	Biogas 354 MW	1,250 MW
Large hydro 5,862 MW	Biomass 906 MW
	Small hydro 1,149 MW

1) BAU scenario includes: Baseline of all installed capacity as at Dec 2019; Continued administration of FiT, with maximization of RE fund up till 2025; Committed and announced capacity, including LSS 4 and NEM 2.0

BAU 2035

14,250 MW 33% RE share
Large hydro 7,761 MW	Biogas 363 MW	Solar 3,939 MW Solar penetration 2025: 15% of peak demand
	Biomass 914 MW
	Small hydro 1,272 MW
	Geothermal – MW

Note – Solar penetration of 24% of peak demand is applicable only for Peninsular Malaysia

NCT 2025

13,137 MW 31% RE share
Large hydro 5,862 MW	Biogas 394 MW	Solar 4,756 MW Solar penetration 2025: 24% of peak demand
	Biomass 976 MW
	Small hydro 1,149 MW

Note – Solar penetration of 24% of peak demand is applicable only for Peninsular Malaysia

NCT 2035

18,043 MW 40% RE share
Large hydro 7,761 MW	Biogas 396 MW	Solar 7,136 MW Solar penetration 2025: 30% of peak demand
	Biomass 1,104 MW
	Small hydro 1,579 MW
	Geothermal 67 MW

Note – Solar penetration of 24% of peak demand is applicable only for Peninsular Malaysia
